No relation to Poland whatsoever so can only comment on the visuals: Much prefer the new one! Well done!
Reminds me of the Serbian eagle
They should have changed his stupid expression.
Looks like his tongue is numb and he can’t roll it back in and the crown weighs 50 kg.
I dont think coats of arms should have an official graphic design anyway. They should be legally defined by blazoning. Here only thing that would change is the legs, other changes are just different (better) interpretations.
I quite like the proposed one, but I absolutely don’t mind the one we have now
I don’t like the eye (in my opinion it makes the eagle look too sad/sleepy) and the crown but it’s still better than the current one
… why ?
Hey, it’s kinda similar to ours, cool. Though perhaps i would still keep the legs white, I think it’s more unique that way. But the outlines really improve the visibility.
at first look right does look better
but the more I think about it, it looks like clip art and the red is worse
As long as no one will be forced to change their coat of arms ASAP (like gov institutions/schools etc) I don’t care.
Any source that gov is planning this? All I could find is some random Twitter account by that sigillum authenticum name.
It just looks better
which one is the new version?
Left one is simple and minimalist which is not case in any other country in the world. I prefer the current (left) one…
Homm3 vs homm3 HD version
I don’t like the eyes, make the eagle look tired. Fine otherwise.
Could be just me, but the tongue and eyes in the version on the right make the poor eagle look like a derp…
Right one for me. The colors and contrast just work better for it’s intended purpose, in my useless opinion.
If our neighbours get a new eagle, I want a new one too.
New one looks polished (sorry)
I don’t hate any of them but the current one is better in my eyes. I’m not really feeling into so many black lines all over the eagle
Finally, this has been requested by heraldists and historic fans for more than a decade now. Here are some community efforts with reasoning for changes from many years ago.
I do **really** recommend reading the first link(with translator). It provides, the reasonings why current emblem is just bad design and not really a true emblem.
I love the improved version. Single version of argent, no ugly gradient that makes it look 3d. Metals aren’t next to each other.
NGL I like the current one much better
I like it, I think it makes it stand out better, curious what Poles think of this change
New version is better, but i still love the version from 1919 – 1927
Maybe a stupid question, but why is there still a crown? Poland is a republic, isn’t it?
I don’t like the proposal. The old eagle looks like a silver jewel, it seems to shine thanks to the simple design and color palette. The new one looks cartoonish.
Poland has one of the best state symbols of the EU, what’s not broken shall remain unmolested.

Why are they deep frying it
Honestly? I don’t hate it. It kind of reminds of lot of older Polish CoA (and current voivodeships CoA). The current red hue is much better however.
Are these govt ones? I swear it was just some heraldic group that wanted these changes
Why is the chicken wearing a crown
240p v 720p but in HD it’s more visible, that he’s making stupid face.
Right one looks better.
I prefer all but the new shade of red.
Looks so much better
I fancy the current one much better. It looks unique and simple. The proposed changes make it look much less special and somewhat archaic.
According to heraldic, current version is not right. Quite like the new one.
I wonder whose cousin did project and how much it cost our tax money.
At a risk of sounding like a Sonic fan – I dont like the yellow legs.
The crown should be closed like in 1919 version [(this)](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Herb_Polski_z_lat_1919-1927_vector.svg/1200px-Herb_Polski_z_lat_1919-1927_vector.svg.png)
